Among the 50 most recent “Venture - Series Unknown” funding entries in France shown here, the largest disclosed round is Pharnext at $199M on 2022-09-01, and it dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts (e.g., Electra at $167M on 2022-07-01 and Edflex at $18M on 2025-10-03). The disclosed amounts also show a clear bottom tail: the smallest disclosed amount is $50K (SPHINX on 2022-07-21), sitting far below the $2M–$12M cluster that appears repeatedly across 2022 deals.
Timing and geography concentrate around 2022 rather than the most recent months: the rows span 2022-01-20 (PlayPlay, $53M) through 2025-11-20 (Ardian, undisclosed), but only a small portion of entries fall after 2025-09-17 (e.g., WAAT $118M on 2025-09-23; Edflex $18M on 2025-10-03; TiHive Technologies $9M on 2025-10-05). By count, “undisclosed” appears in 7 of 50 rows (e.g., Ardian 2025-11-20; Shippingbo 2025-10-31; PASQAL 2025-11-01), and Paris-based companies recur across multiple 2022 rounds (e.g., Devialet $50M on 2022-09-13; Coinhouse $43M on 2022-06-08; Kayrros $44M on 2022-03-22).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed “Series Unknown” round in this France list, and how far above the rest is it?
Pharnext’s $199M on 2022-09-01 is the clear outlier; even the next-largest disclosed amounts (Electra $167M on 2022-07-01 and ChapsVision $98M on 2022-09-22) stay well below $199M.
Are the disclosed deal sizes concentrated in a narrow range, or spread widely?
Beyond the outliers, the list repeatedly lands in the low-to-mid single-digit and teens range, with multiple $4M–$12M rounds (e.g., Cosmian $4M on 2022-06-20; Moodwork $4M on 2025-09-17; Rediv $12M on 2022-07-07), while the smallest disclosed amount is only $50K (SPHINX on 2022-07-21).
